| 1 | +write a read me in a standard way |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +Here’s a standard, ready‑to‑paste README for the mini project named “commit-generator”. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +# commit-generator |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +A single‑page Conventional Commits builder to generate clean, consistent Git commit messages in seconds. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +## Features |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +- Conventional Commits header: type, optional scope, concise imperative subject. |
| 12 | +- Optional body with “what” and “why,” plus structured footers. |
| 13 | +- Built‑in footers: BREAKING CHANGE, API‑Endpoint, Issue‑Id/Defect‑Id, Task‑Id, Assigned‑By. |
| 14 | +- Live preview, one‑click copy to clipboard, download as .txt, and git commit command preview. |
| 15 | +- Credits modal and in‑file attribution comment for transparent crediting. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +## Demo |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +- Open the single file and use the form to compose and preview a complete commit message. |
| 20 | +- Copy to clipboard or download as a text file; optionally copy the suggested git commit command. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +## Quick start |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +- Clone or download this repository. |
| 25 | +- Open index.html in any modern browser (no build tools or servers required). |
| 26 | +- Fill type/scope, subject, and optional body/footers; then copy or download the generated message. |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +## Usage guide |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +- Header: type(optional scope): subject |
| 31 | +- Body (optional): explain the intent and rationale briefly. |
| 32 | +- Footers (optional): |
| 33 | + - BREAKING CHANGE: <details> |
| 34 | + - API-Endpoint: <method and path> |
| 35 | + - Issue-Id or Defect-Id: <tracker key or number> |
| 36 | + - Task-Id: <task reference> |
| 37 | + - Assigned-By: <name or role> |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +## Example commit messages |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +- feat(ui): add single‑page commit generator with preview and copy |
| 42 | +- fix(copy): handle clipboard failures with graceful fallback alert |
| 43 | +- docs(readme): add usage guide and examples |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +## Project structure |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +- index.html — self‑contained HTML/CSS/JS app with UI, preview, copy/download, and credits modal. |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +## Tech stack |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +- HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript (no dependencies). |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +## Accessibility |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +- Keyboard: modal supports Escape to close; large click targets and clear contrast. |
| 56 | +- Content: concise labels, hints, and predictable field order. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +## Browser support |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +- Designed for modern browsers; clipboard copy uses the standard Clipboard API and gracefully falls back to manual copy if unavailable. |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +## Security notes |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +- External links (e.g., GitHub credit) open in a new tab and use safe target and rel attributes. |
| 65 | +- No network requests or tracking; runs entirely client‑side. |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +## Why this exists |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +- Enforces consistent, scannable history for easier reviews, rollbacks, and automated changelogs. |
| 70 | +- Speeds up daily workflow by removing friction in writing Conventional Commits. |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +## Roadmap |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +- Optional 50/72 helper and soft line wrap indicator. |
| 75 | +- Local autosave of last message fields. |
| 76 | +- Export/import presets for common scopes and footers. |
| 77 | +- i18n for labels and hints. |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +## Contributing |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +- Fork, create a feature branch, and submit a pull request with a focused change and clear commit messages. |
| 82 | +- Keep UI minimal, accessible, and dependency‑free. |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +## Credits |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +- Code credits: One‑numan. |
| 87 | +- Conventional Commits inspiration and structure. |
